Pues por besarte, Minguillo, Me riñe mi madre á mí; Vuélveme presto, carillo, Aquel beso que te dí. Vuélveme el beso sin despecho Pues por tuya me confieso Porque me riñen por eso Como si fuera mal hecho, Á tí sera mas provecho En trocar otro con mi; Vuélveme presto, carillo, Aquel beso que te dí. No te hago disfavor Escucha acá lo que digo Y tenerte por amigo Si me das el beso, amor, Todo aquesto [?] es por mejor Según siento para tí; Vuélveme presto, carillo, Aquel beso que te dí. Vuélveme el beso, por Dios, Porqué en besarme importuno Pensaras volverme uno Y vernas a tener dos. No desconformemos nos, Acaba dime de sí: Vuélveme presto, carillo, Aquel beso que te dí.

Confirmed with Cancionero, llamado Flor de enamorados, sacado de diversos Autores, agora nuevamente por muy lindo orden y estilo recopilado por Juan de Linares, Barcelona: con Licencia del Ordinario, por Lorenzo Deu, delante el Palacio del Rey, Año 1626. Appears in Canciones, pages 27 - 28. Sometimes attributed to Don Diego de la Llana or De Diego de la Luna, but most anthologies indicate the text is anonymous. In Don Quixote by Cervantes, a character identifies herself as a daughter of Don Diego de la Llana, and the plethora of commentary on Don Quixote can obscure the search for a real-life person by this name.

Weil die Mutter mich gescholten, Weil ich dich, mein Freund, geküßt, Gieb, o gieb den Kuß mir wieder, Den du mir hast abgeküßt. Gieb den Kuß mit gutem Willen, Daß ihr Zürnen mög' vergehn; Daß wir wahrhaft sagen können, Daß zurück die That geschehn. Und es wird dir Nutzen bringen, Wenn zurück den Kuß du giebst; Gieb, o gieb geschwind, Geliebter, Jenen Kuß, wenn du mich liebst. Gieb den Kuß um Gottes willen, Mutter ist so wunderbar. -- Dacht'st zurück zu geben einen, Und nun hast du zweie gar.

Beneath the poem it says "De Diego de la Llana", which may be a reference to Don Quixote. In later collections, notably Die Gesänge der Völker: Lyrische Mustersammlung in nationalen Parallelen (1851, ed. by Wolfgang Menzel), the text is titled "Der Kuß".
